One of my cow orkers moved from Ukraine to the US at about age 7ish. He said that the thing that amazed him most about the US was bananas. He never got to eat a banana in Ukraine so he said he gorged on them when he got here. I don't think about bananas the same way anymore.

@AncTreat5358 Then at that point I became a Mac user.

@AncTreat5358 Yeah I always heard people saying good about the CoCo but never really got to use one. I was intrigued by the 6809.

I had used (and enjoyed) a TRS-80 Model III, and later I worked at a Radio Shack Computer center for a couple of months (during which I sold a Tandy 4000 Xenix system for a nice commission), but I was mostly a Commodore kid.

But the Amiga was, up until about 1998, the machine I was really after.

I'm no Amiga expert by any means; I'm doing this to learn about it. I had a C128 back in 1986 and desperately wanted an Amiga.

So, last night I fired up AmiBerry and created a couple hard drive files ("System" and "Work") and installed AmigaOS3.2 and then Picasso96 (booted just fine for a while) and then later I edited my user startup script and now it simply doesn't boot anymore. Black screen, not even a kickstart splash. Booted from another disk, edited the change back, no help.

Half of the preset configurations on the amiberry quickstart list don't actually succeed in booting, even when paired with appropriate Kickstart ROM and Workbench.

Is this simply the state of #Amiga emulation these days?
